Ulefone has followed the launch of the flagship Ulefone T1 with a more affordable model named the Ulefone S8 Pro boasting dual camera support, and more.
For those of you with a little knowledge of Ulefone, you will remember that the phone had already launched a dual Camera S8 earlier in the year, but that model has now been superseded with the updated S8 Pro.
Like the original S8, the Ulefone S8 Pro runs a dual camera set up on the rear of the phone using a main 13 megapixel sensor and secondary 5 megapixel sensor. This is a huge upgraded compared to similarly priced phones and allows the S8 Pro user to take photos with a similar Bokeh effect that is usually reserved for DSLR users. The selfie specs are also right up there too with a front facing 5 megapixel sensor but with the addition of a front LED flash.
As far as the internal hardware specifications compare to the original S8, the S8 Pro sees multiple update from 4G LTE support, powerful quad-core Mediatek MT6737 processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB internal memory and 3000mAh battery. The S8 Pro also comes with a rapid fingerprint scanner with an unlock speed of 0.18s.
Gizchina News of the week
While Ulefone is keen to point out that the S8 Pro is a budget phone they have been generous enough to build the handset with quality materials including a metal frame, elegant curved rear panel and 2.5D display.
Speaking of the display, it’s also with mentioning that Ulefone has taken the rather unique approach of using a 5.3-inch HD display with super narrow 0.5mm wide bezels, rare at any price let alone on a phone for less than $80.
The final feature highlight is the triple card support. While other Android phones allow the use of either dual SIM cards or a single SIM plus SD card, Ulefone has built the S8 Pro to accept both dual SIM cards and an SD card of up to 128GB! A great feature that we’re sure other brands will be quick to copy.
The Ulefone S8 Pro is listed on the official Ulefone website here, and availability is available from Ulefone’s shopping page.
